Privilege to be on CNN to talk about the successful collaboration between Uzbekistan and the @ILO TPM Project and @WorldBank to eradicate child labour and forced labour in the cotton harvest. Still work to be done but Uzbekistan is a real success story in the world of work!

#Uzbekistan has improved the most in the @WorldBank's #WomenBizLaw 2024 Index. The country has enacted four important reforms advancing #GenderEquality. We will keep supporting @GOVuz and civil society's efforts in this area to #AccelerateEquality. wrld.bg/PYlP50QKKyS

A2 There are parts of Jampik Kala in Karakalpakstan which date back to the 4th century BC! It’s one of more than 50 desert fortresses in Ancient Khorezm. #trlt

Exciting news! Four snow leopards spotted together in Uzbekistan. 🐾 With a population estimated at only 30-50 individuals in the country, these majestic creatures remain under-studied. Let's celebrate and continue efforts to protect these beautiful big cats!
🐾A group of 4 snow leopards has been observed in Uzbekistan's Gissar Reserve for the first time in history. The snow leopard is a prominent symbol of an upcoming global event in Samarkand, the #CMSCOP14 #natureknowsnoborders

More than 10 years ago, #Uzbekistan started monitoring cotton harvest with @ilo support. Today, cotton is free from child & forced labour and working conditions are monitored across supply chain through @Better_Work - here at Global Textiles

Konsta's impact speaks volumes, reminding us as international development professionals to acknowledge the artists and civil society activists who truly resonate with the everyday citizens of the countries we serve. Let's not overlook their vital role. globalvoices.org/2023/07/01/…

Nice to see Uzbek grassroots activist @urikguli bring attention to important issues. Uzbekistan's potential in water, energy, and waste management holds great promise, yet the reality remains a reminder of the need for further reforms to achieve a greener, cleaner Uzbekistan 🌳
